Judging Exposure with Playback
•
It is difficult to accurately judge exposure with the LCD screen. In
particular, you want to try to avoid overexposing your image.
•
Overexposed areas in video can be so bright that they are “blown
out” masses of white with no image information.
•
This camera does not have Zebra stripes for judging overexposure nor
does it have a histogram in the LCD monitor while you are shooting.
•
However, these things (or something similar to them) do appear in
the playback display.
